And yet, another Chris Costa gun.

Wanted to make this thread since im really into a gun Chris Costa made or had made for himself during the filming of Magpul dynamic carbine volume 1. I saw his AR platform and thought id recreate it but unfortunately im not THAT experienced with externals and whatnot so id like you guys to maybe tell me what accessories he uses and whatnot on his AR since ill be trying to build the same rifle just on a WE m4.
Also another rifle of Chris Costa is the LaRue tactical one. That is an awesome looking AR and id like to reproduce that too. If anyone know what parts are used on both guns please post em below.

Here is the rifle on youtube WE M4 Custom SR16 Build Magpul GBB Rifle - YouTube

And here is the LaRue one on an article iv read. http://www.laruetactical.com/costa-edition

They are two different guns and id like to make them both. But id have to stick on the one for now. Thank you all!

P.S I dont know if anyone already made such a build here but from what iv checked i couldnt find anything and also if this thread belongs somewhere else by all means replace it appropriately.

The top one is pretty standard SR16 build with an Aimpoint, rail covers, Pmag, CTR stock, PEQ16 and Osprey tactical handgrip. G&P makes these stock SR16s.

Not a fan of that skinny rail style m4/ar15s. But for the larue, looks like:

Magpul CTR stock (PTS)
Troy BUIS sights (lots make them).
Noveske NSR handguard (madbull makes them).
Dbal a2 designator (G&P makes them).
Magpul Emag (PTS)
Surefire M600 (element makes them)
Dual pressure switch (element makes them)
Rail inserts (not sure precisely who makes them).
Aimpoint micro T1 (many make airsoft cheapos)
Your choice of standard AR upper/lower receiver if it matters since they look the same except engravings.

Wow thanks man! Glad you could shed some light on the two guns for me.

Not to quibble but those are LaRue rails, not Noveske. There is no airsoft version (yet).

Oh yea, upon closer inspection, there is a flange there. Its the handguard from the Larue Predatar line of ARs but I dont think you can buy the Predatar rail on its own even in RS world?

Looks a lot like the Noveske NSR rail though from afar after you cover up the sides with rail attachments and what not. Well, since it was on Larue's site, I guess chances are they won't plug somebody else.
